Abstract
The article is devoted to one of the urgent problems of training future bachelors in computer engineering in the conditions of multidisciplinarity of STEM education. In particular, the essence of such concepts as STEM education, the analysis of its functioning in the international educational space is revealed. The purpose of the article is to analyze the essence, content, approaches and features of modern innovative STEM education in the preparation of bachelors in computer engineering in Ukraine, as a new and priority direction, taking into account world and domestic historical experience. The main approaches to the implementation of STEM education programs are highlighted: the expansion of educational experience in individual STEM subjects, using problem-oriented educational activities, during which analytical concepts are applied to real world problems, with the aim of better understanding of complex concepts by students; integrating knowledge of STEM subjects to create a deeper understanding of their content, which will ultimately lead to the expansion of opportunities for students to choose a career path in the future; the use of a multidisciplinary approach, which relies on integrativeness in teaching the necessary disciplines, as it is done in real production conditions. Thus, the student will be able to apply his knowledge to solve poorly structured technological problems, develop technical capabilities and more intensively master the skills of highly organized thinking; the introduction of innovations in the teaching methodology of each of the individual STEM subjects. The importance of teachers’ readiness to introduce STEM education is proven, which is due to the fact that in the education system the emphasis is on theoretical subject knowledge, and the connection between learning and solving pract ical tasks remains weak. Therefore, it is important to popularize STEM technologies, organize practice-oriented courses to improve the qualifications of teachers. It is emphasized that the implementation of STEM education programs in the training of future bachelors in computer engineering allows to satisfy the need of the state and society for highly qualified engineering specialists, to increase the interest of modern youth in engineering professions, to significantly improve the quality of education, and to prepare students for real life. Our analysis allows us to consider STEM education as a complex valuable, socially important, systemic-institutional, personal-developmental, process-active and technological phenomenon.
